Abstract:

Beside reduction in tidal volume limiting peak airway pressure minimizes the risk for ventilator-associated-lung-injury in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome. Pressure-controlled, time-cycled ventilation (PCV) enables the physician to keep airway pressures under strict limits by presetting inspiratory and expiratory pressures, and cycle times. PCV results in a square-waved airway pressure and a decelerating inspiratory gas flow holding the alveoli inflated for the preset time. Preset pressures and cycle times, and respiratory system mechanics affect alveolar and intrinsic positive end-expiratory (PEEPi) pressures, tidal volume, total minute, and alveolar ventilation. When compared with flow-controlled, time-cycled (‘volume-controlled’) ventilation, PCV results in reduced peak airway pressures, but higher mean airway. Homogeneity of regional peak alveolar pressure distribution within the lung is improved. However, no consistent data exist, showing PCV to improve patient outcome. During inverse ratio ventilation (IRV) elongation of inspiratory time increases mean airway pressure and enables full lung inflation, whereas shortening expiratory time causes incomplete lung emptying and increased PEEPi. Both mechanisms increase mean alveolar and transpulmonary pressures, and may thereby improve lung recruitment and gas exchange. However, when compared with conventional mechanical ventilation using an increased external PEEP to reach the same magnitude of total PEEP as that produced intrinsically by IRV, IRV has no advantage. Airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) provides a PCV-like squared pressure pattern by time-cycled switches between two continuous positive airway pressure levels, while allowing unrestricted spontaneous breathing in any ventilatory phase. Maintaining spontaneous breathing with APRV is associated with recruitment and improved ventilation of dependent lung areas, improved ventilation-perfusion matching, cardiac output, oxygenation, and oxygen delivery, whereas need for sedation, vasopressors, and inotropic agents and duration of ventilator support decreases.

Full text

Abstract:

This chapter takes up a well-known objection to the compatibilist position, which is “the manipulation argument” and related arguments based on covert control. It is argued that we should reject soft compatibilist responses to cases of this kind that rely on considerations of “history” to exclude manipulated or covertly controlled agents from responsible agency. Instead a modified form of hard compatibilism is defended, one that grants something problematic about cases of this kind but rejects the claim that agents in these conditions are not responsible. The relevant issue is not that these agents are not responsible but that their manipulators or covert controllers are not entitled to hold them responsible. Selective hard compatibilism maintains that what is compromised in these circumstances is not the moral responsibility of the agent (where robust compatibilist conditions of a relevant kind are satisfied) but the participant stance or moral standing of their manipulators.

Abstract:

The landmark paper discussed in this chapter is ‘Patient-controlled analgesia: A new concept of postoperative pain relief’, published by Bennett et al. in 1982. This paper presents data from two investigations in which patient-controlled analgesia using morphine was evaluated in patients who had undergone elective gastric bypass surgery for the management of morbid obesity. The paper shows that patient-controlled analgesia achieved adequate analgesia more often than conventional intermittent analgesia did when both administration methods were compared, but with less sedation. In addition, patients who had experienced both methods of analgesia felt that patient-controlled analgesia was superior. The paper also demonstrates that individuals can vary in their analgesic requirements.

Full text

Abstract:

The chapter explores the earliest attested stages of the different Romance branches, elaborating on the picture which has emerged in Chapter 4 and showing that the traces of more-than-binary gender contrasts grow increasingly significant, and geographically widespread, as one proceeds backwards in time. Thus, even Northern Italo-Romance and Gallo-Romance, which have no traces of a functional neuter today, still featured in their medieval stage not only a non-lexical neuter adjective inflection for default/agreement with non-lexical controllers (Gallo-Romance), but neuter agreement on (overdifferentiated) lower numerals (Italo-Romance), and scattered remnants of neuter plural agreement on determiners. The latter gradually increase as one moves to Tuscan, Romansh, and, finally, Southern Italian, where the four-gender system is still observed today, with Old Neapolitan even showing a four-target/four-controller gender system, with the two genders in addition to masculine and feminine both going back to the Latin neuter.

Full text

Abstract:

Actuator and sensor delays are among the most common dynamic phenomena in engineering practice, and when disregarded, they render controlled systems unstable. Over the past sixty years, predictor feedback has been a key tool for compensating such delays, but conventional predictor feedback algorithms assume that the delays and other parameters of a given system are known. When incorrect parameter values are used in the predictor, the resulting controller may be as destabilizing as without the delay compensation. This book develops adaptive predictor feedback algorithms equipped with online estimators of unknown delays and other parameters. Such estimators are designed as nonlinear differential equations, which dynamically adjust the parameters of the predictor. The design and analysis of the adaptive predictors involves a Lyapunov stability study of systems whose dimension is infinite, because of the delays, and nonlinear, because of the parameter estimators. This book solves adaptive delay compensation problems for systems with single and multiple inputs/outputs, unknown and distinct delays in different input channels, unknown delay kernels, unknown plant parameters, unmeasurable finite-dimensional plant states, and unmeasurable infinite-dimensional actuator states. Presenting breakthroughs in adaptive control and control of delay systems, the book offers powerful new tools for the control engineer and the mathematician.

Full text

Abstract:

More than 225 placebo-controlled type 1 investigations demonstrate that psychostimulants are highly effective in reducing core symptoms of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children and adults. In contrast, there are limited type I studies demonstrating that psychopharmacological management with U.S. Food & Drug Administration-approved agents for ADHD (stimulants and nonstimulants), atypical antipsychotics, and mood stabilizers decrease the defiant and aggressive behavior characteristic of disruptive behavior disorders. Stimulant treatment evidence has been supplemented by two large multisite randomized controlled trials. Randomized controlled trials from the past 15 years continue to report several key adverse events associated with stimulants but have not supported rarer and more serious problems. Although psychostimulants have been shown to retain their efficacy for as long as 14 months, their long-term academic and social benefits are not as robust. Nonstimulant agents for which there is more limited evidence of efficacy include atomoxetine, alpha-agonists, modafinil, and bupropion.

Full text

Abstract:

Diagnosis and management of bipolar II disorder (BD II) remains a significant challenge for clinicians. Early diagnosis of BD II requires a step-wise approach to systematically probe for previous hypomanic episodes and look for other indicators of bipolarity. Emphasis must be laid on ruling out common clinical conditions that could be potential differential diagnoses for BD II. The evidence base from controlled trials for management of various phases of BD II is sparse. The role of antidepressants in treating BD II remains unclear. Hence, the treatment recommendations are formulated based not only on the limited data but also on the extrapolation of data from trials of bipolar I disorder and expert opinion. Further controlled studies are urgently needed to improve treatment of BD II.

Abstract:

Marijuana has a long history of medical use. This chapter discusses the modern revival of interest in marijuana in the United States, Europe, and elsewhere. The fully licensed cannabinoid medicines dronabinol (Marinol), nabilone (Cesamet), and nabiximols (Sativex) and their uses are discusses. Medical indications include multiple sclerosis, pain, nausea and vomiting, epilepsy, appetite stimulation, mood, sleep, and migraine. Apart from the treatment of spasticity and pain in multiple sclerosis, there is little or no scientific evidence of efficacy because of the lack of controlled clinical trials; nevertheless, there may be a significant placebo effect. The supply of cannabis to medical pharmacies is poorly controlled. The Dutch and Canadian models provide good quality control, but in the United States supplies are of patchy quality from state to state.

Full text

Abstract:

Topical pharmacological agents such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and capsaicin are widely recommended as first-line analgesics in the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee, hand, and potentially other peripheral joints in view of their safety and efficacy. Although initial studies were short in duration (2–4 weeks), recent randomized controlled trials have confirmed the efficacy of topical NSAIDs over longer (12-week) study periods. Systematic reviews demonstrate that their efficacy can be equivalent to oral NSAIDs for OA pain, but they have a significantly better systemic toxicity profile than the corresponding oral formulations. Topical capsaicin is less well studied than topical NSAIDs but has been demonstrated to be effective in several placebo-controlled clinical trials. Local warming and an uncomfortable burning sensation is a common problem with initial applications, but this subsides with continued treatment and can be minimized by using a low-strength preparation (e.g. 0.025%) initially. Several other topical treatments such as drug-free transfersome gel and local lignocaine patches have been shown to be effective in controlling pain due to OA. However, they have been studied in relatively few studies and currently are not recommended for general use.

Full text

Abstract:

Increased adrenocortical secretion of hormones, primarily cortisol in depression, is one of the most consistent findings in neuropsychiatry. The maintenance of the internal homeostatic state of an individual is facilitated by the ability to circulate glucocorticoids to exert negative feedback on the secretion of hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) hormones through binding to mineralocorticoid and glucocorticoid receptors, thus limiting the vulnerability to diseases related to psychological stress in genetically predisposed individuals. The HPA axis response to stress can be thought of as a crucial part of the organism’s response to stress: acute responses are generally adaptive, but excessive or prolonged responses can lead to deleterious effects. A spectrum of conditions may be associated with increased and prolonged activation of the HPA axis, including depression, poorly controlled diabetes mellitus, and metabolic syndrome. HPA axis dysregulation and hypercortisolaemia may further contribute to a hyperglycaemic or poorly controlled diabetic state.

Full text

Abstract:

Haemostasis is a dynamic process to stop bleeding after vessel wall damage. Platelets form a platelet plug via activation, adherence, and aggregation processes. The coagulation proteins are activated one-by-one, cascading towards fibrin polymerization, a process controlled by thrombin generation. Fibrinolysis is the process responsible for fibrin mesh degradation, which is also controlled by thrombin. Besides procoagulant proteins, anticoagulant proteins maintain a balance in the haemostatic system. Measuring platelet count and function can be done as part of the monitoring of haemostasis, while coagulation times are measured to assess the coagulation proteins. Degradation products of fibrin and lysis times give information about fibrinolysis. Point-of-care monitoring provides simple, rapid bedside testing for platelets and for whole blood using viscoelasticity properties. In trauma-induced coagulopathy (TIC) platelet counts and coagulation times are still common practice to evaluate haemostasis, but point-of-care measurements are being used more and more. Medication interfering with haemostasis is frequently used in intensive care unit patients. Each (group of) drug(s) has its own monitoring tests either based on classical or novel techniques.

Full text

Abstract:

The pursuit of tests for therapeutic interventions has been a characteristic of Western medicine since ancient times. Historical accounts of the clinical trial are usually expressed through the lens of presentism: how the various components of the first modern randomized controlled trial-the comparison, blinding, and randomization-culminated in Austin Bradford Hill’s 1946 trial of streptomycin for tuberculosis. The factual context of the development of the randomized controlled trial is important if only to emphasize the historicity of contemporary research methodology. However, the adoption of the various components of the trial at any one time has as much to do with changing the socio-political and ethical contexts as the ‘objective’ scientific standards of evidence. Evidence is not just scientific data floating in some ethereal medium, but is also linked to facts and beliefs of the various members of diverse medical communities who interpret evidence and deploy it to legitimize various strategies. This introductory chapter aims to present the background and context through which evidence-based medicine has emerged.

Abstract:

What are the risks? How big are they? ‘Resilience’ considers some central questions faced by structural engineers. Structures are safety critical—when they fail people may be killed—but no human activity is risk free, so how safe is safe enough? Scientific knowledge is necessary but not sufficient. Many assessments and assumptions have to be made about what may happen in the future. Risks can be predicted and controlled, but by their very nature the answers are partial because of system and human uncertainties. Systems-thinking provides a common language for hard and soft systems and examines how the most promising way of re-integrating those professions fragmented by specialisms.

Abstract:

‘Recreational drugs’ explores the origins, mechanisms, and criminalization of many widely used drugs. Many recreational drugs are legal including alcohol, tobacco, and caffeine, which are all widely available. Other drugs are controlled by law. Cannabis is the most commonly used illegal drug, but some people advocate its use in pain relief. Likewise, amphetamines have been used as decongestants and in treating ADHD, but its criminalization led to the development of designer drugs such as ecstasy. Heroin and cocaine are considered as harder drugs that carry many more risks to users and society. Many Western countries have strict drug laws, but there are moves in some countries to legalize or decriminalize cannabis.

The carpus is characterized by complex anatomy and biomechanics. Twenty-four tendons traverse the eight bones and several named extrinsic and intrinsic ligaments. The joint are controlled by integrated co-ordination of the tendons and interosseous ligaments such that that movement yet stability in any direction can be achieved. Pathologies include ligamentous instability, ganglia, osteoarthritis, Kienbock’s, dorsal rim impingement, infection, rheumatoid. Treatment options depend on the diagnosis but include hand therapy, steroid injections, and surgery (arthroscopy, replacement, partial fusion, total fusion, excision arthoplasty).

Pain management for surgical patients is a complex, but important, issue. Pain management is often inadequately achieved, and therefore it is imperative that this aspect of care is improved. Delays in pain management can result in suffering for the patient and further complications, including prolonged hospital admission. To address this, healthcare professionals need to be familiar with all aspects of pain management. This chapter provides an overview of pain physiology, assessment, and pharmacological interventions, including analgesics, epidurals, and patient-controlled analgesia.

This concluding chapter seeks to explain how neo-liberal ideas were transformed into a neoclassical doctrine and the forces, political and economic, that allowed it to influence developing countries. It goes on to speculate that neo-conservatism will be the last grand narrative of development, attributing this intellectual closure to the widespread adoption of the method of random controlled trials, pioneered in medicine, for the testing of individual policy intervention. This method may produce a plethora of valid petty narratives, but without any grand narrative to give overall coherence. Fragmentation will breed inevitable incoherence.

After Odainath died, Zenobia assumed political authority over Palmyra on behalf of her son Wahballath, proclaiming him “king of kings” and governor of Odainath’s territories. Her reign was eventful. As queen, Zenobia emulated powerful women rulers, whether contemporary or from remote antiquity. She controlled a vast amount of Roman territory from Egypt to Anatolia and upper Mesopotamia. But rather than admitting to a breach with the Roman court, Zenobia insisted that she was governing Roman territory on its behalf. As ruler, she governed diverse subjects, including Jews, Christians, and Manichaeans.
